Van Cortlandt Park Lake — the Seventh Wonder

Come explore and learn all about Van Cortlandt Park Lake on June 12.

The fourth annual celebration of the Seven Wonders of Van Cortlandt Park series includes hands-on activities, an opportunity to relax on the deck of the Van Cortlandt Golf House and enjoy a beautiful view of the lake — one of Van Cortlandt Park’s seven wonders — collect and identify aquatic invertebrates, and enjoy finger foods and refreshments.

Thanks to the folks at LL Bean, you can also watch a fly-fishing demo and then practice your casting.

Meet at the Van Cortlandt Golf House, enter the park through the Bailey Avenue and Van Cortlandt Park South entrance.

June 12 from 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm. Free. RSVP required by June 9.

Van Cortlandt Park [Broadway and Van Cortlandt Park South, in Riverdale, (718) 601–1460; [email protected]].
